double image problem
Hi everyone. I just finished a game with Lews Therin. There was a very wierd bug in the game ive never seen before. Was just wondering if anyone else has experienced this.
I tucked a hero inside my castle and it had plenty of men with him. The next day it showed the hero inside the castle. And then it showed an exact replica of the hero and army outside of the castle. This gave me nine heroes in the game, but only 8 were showing on the right side of the screen. Also when i tried to combine the actual heroes army with the phantom one, the creatures just disappeared.
As well i couldnt enter the castle with any heroes and couldnt exit with the one that was there.
Not that it mattered, i wouldve lost anyway  . but for future games i was just wondering if there was a fix or something for this problem
Any thoughts would be appreciated
Just in case anyone needs to know, i have a store bought heroes complete version

yes, I remember it has happened to me before, in a hot seat game actually. I showed it off to my roomate, and we chucked about it as 'another bug'. This was way back 4 years ago though. No biggie, I'm sure its extremely rare, and only reproducible on specific machines.

What are the chances of getting this spell in mage guilds? What level is it? What magic school does it belong to?

it's from the magic school of the lonesome priests, subterranian level. chances for getting that spell are anti-proportional to the amount of female heroes in your army.
and just for a change, here's something ontopic :
the clone heroes bug happened to me once, there was nothing I could do about it. Dismissing of the original etc. didn't work. You could even give armies to the clone and the original was recieving them.

although this spell works well for a lowly footman, ive heard that being an emperor, legionaierre, or even a president, the summon intern spell has a much greater effect

I have only seen the "clone" bug once in single player mode; out of 50 or 60 games. It was a little funny watching the AI control your Heroe/Clone--it provided extra movement/turn but would always seem to go the wrong way.
I'm not certain but I believe combining the two mass spells causes all your shooters to shoot twice as fast and twice as much--causing one extra hex radius to turn to swamp.

That bug happen to me twice, is the stranges bug along the ¨double movement¨ bug (you move your main hero and then when you pass the turn, your hero replensih their movement points, and then the ai move it, then is your turn, you move, then when you pass the turn, again the hero replenish their movement points and move them...very weird)

Yes, this bug happens and was sent in a few times as people were suspecting their opponent was cheating. Other times people have cancelled games when it appeared.
It can be fixed as GrunanCross mentioned. Therefore, a game doesn't have to be ruined because of it. I forget exact details on how to fix it. Restarting from opponents autosave can fix I believe. Haven't seen this in a very long time though.
